Misting a Grand Junction Patio: Western Slope Heat
The Western Slope runs hotter than the Front Range in summer, and Grand Junction backyards can feel it by noon. The good news is that the air there is dry, so a high-pressure patio misting system has plenty of room to work.
For Grand Junction heat, The Patio Misting System suggests .3mm nozzles when you want more mist, especially on high mounts. The Pro kit's mixed nozzle sizes let you put the bigger ones where people sit and smaller ones near doors or furniture.
Pools and patios go together on the Western Slope. Run Colorado Patio Misters along a shade sail frame or cabana edge near the pool. The mist evaporates overhead instead of soaking the deck.
Check your water, too. If you see white spots on fixtures, use the included calcium inhibitor filter and consider a second inline filter. Clean nozzles in vinegar or CLR for 30 minutes if they clog.
